They actually do that to avoid long loading times (texture pop-in, i mean) but yeah, I sort of wish they'd just use lower resolution textures then to achieve the same results.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |

You can't entirely blame Konami here for that. Old School platformers are a dying breed all around. Gamers these days just find them irritating. It's a genre that is going the way of the dodo, along with those old click adventure games like the longest journey.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |

A lot of people weren't that fond of NSMB and it's still a bit of a rarity. But eh, you are entitled to your opinion. It's not like I ever disagreed with the sentimentality that old school platformers are fun, but we're in the minority of people who want them when you consider the community as a whole. That's just not really arguable.
 This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

That's pretty much what I meant yeah. Plus, it's MARIO -- of course it sold well. But a lot of people weren't happy that it really was nothing new whatsoever.
I enjoyed it, but it was short and easy in addition to offering me nothing I haven't already experienced. I really wish they'd put some serious effort into a new platformer (an original one!) but as I said, it's rare these days. How ya doing, buddy? |
